Simply Deplorable

Reading the "House of Substance" post on The Deadliest Man Alive, I clicked on the Wikipedia link for "Count Dante". Following various links from there, I stumbled upon this hilarious, though poignant, quote in an article on the India martial art varma kalai:

Attempts to capture all the glory for the origin of martial arts in India for China or Greece is deplorable.

I want to visit the parallel universe in which the majority of martial arts movies were filmed in India, and all of them feature elaborate song and dance numbers.
